In July 1991, Edwards escaped from Dahmer's apartment and led police to him.

Edwards' attorney asked the court commissioner to allow his client to participate by telephone for his bond hearing over the weekend, citing potential adverse publicity of video showing Edwards' in handcuffs.

But the commissioner denied it, set bail at $10,000 and an Aug. 8 preliminary hearing.
